Vibe Names Jermaine Hall Editor-in-Chief
by Angela
Yesterday the NYTimes revealed that Vibe named Jermaine Hall (@JermaineHall) it’s Editor-in-Chief. Hall will be the EIC for not only the printed publication but also for Vibe.com. In a phone interview with the NYTimes Brett Wright described the website as a place to find coverage on urban entertainment and music on a “regular, daily, hourly, by-minute basis.” He went on to say the print publication would take on investigative journalism and long form stories. Vibe Magazine is set to resume publishing with it’s November issue.
Wright, whom you may remembered we interviewed the day after the Vibe purchase, will assume the role of co-CEO and manage the Vibe Lifestyle Network brand. The Vibe Lifestyle brand will consist of both the print and the web property of Vibe among other sites. Hall was formerly the EIC at King Magazine prior to its closing, a music editor at The Source, and Vibe’s former Webmaster.

Well Noted says:
Jermaine Hall is a bootlicking Uncle Tom. He has some busted pictures of his white wife in his Facebook account that he now made private. (You have to be a friend in order to see them.) The woman is a wilderbeast and absolutely hideous and this Negro has the audacity to say what’s real and bout’ it but obviously he’s not. He’s got some self hatred going on.
